Looking for Headlamp Assemblies

[JLPurcell]

I am looking for NOS right and left Headlamp Assemblies for my 1972 240Z. I have a NOS left from a 260 along with the new materials to retrofit the wiring but I need a right so I may as well try to find both and resale the 260 assembly. I also need a NOS right turn light assembly. Any ideas.

Thanks Jerry

Jerry,

I don't know where any NOS assemblies can be found, I guess it might be hit or miss depending on where you call. Maybe someone here knows who has some stock left. If you have one, you're halfway there.

The assemblies on my car were pretty rusted so I tried the local Z salvage yard, unfortunately their inventory looked just as bad as the ones I had.

I decided to have mine zinc plated and they turned out alright. I'd post some pictures but it won't let me upload anything right now. The Plater I used had a large barrel for plating so I took a bunch of parts down when I had these done. It helped keep the per piece price down. From here I'm going to clear-coat them for added protection.

I had to get a little creative with the wiring and the headlight adjustment screws but I think I've got it figured out. Again, Ace Hardware to the rescue.

You might sell the NOS you have and salvage an old set. Good luck with your search and efforts.

I'll keep a look out for another set...

Have you tried Courtesy Nissan? I was able to purchase a complete NOS exhaust system (manifold to rear muffler) a couple of years ago. Just email them your part(s) numbers to check for availability. sales@courtesyparts.com

I purchased a pair of Koito headlights for him about a year ago. I seem to recall he also was selling the complete assemblies as well.

Try Motorsport Auto. I know they have NOS turn signals and I believe they have the headlight assemblies.
